Patna, Bihar:
Dead bodies of suspected Covid patients continue to be spotted floating on the Ganga River, triggering shock and anger among locals in parts of Bihar and neighbouring Uttar Pradesh with no one to hold accountability. The frightening visuals of corpses have also sparked huge health concerns in rural areas, as the country fights a pandemic that affects lakhs every day.
After more than 100 decomposing bodies washed up on the banks of the Ganga in Bihar s Buxar in the past two days, more have been found in Brahmapur in the same district. The administration, however, has brushed off responsibility, saying the bodies have been found in villages that are in UP.
